Authors:Susanne Vosmer Abstract: Group Analysis, Ahead of Print. Gadamerian concepts are combined with historic and group analytic conceptualizations to understand and modify expressions of different kinds of love in a long-term group. Vignettes are presented. In the interpretative encounter, affective, empathic, cultural and other resonances emerged. Through dialogue, new understanding occurred in the group about dangerous, romantic, unhealthy, narcissistic, intoxicating, unrequited, ecclesial and sexual love, which are influenced by prejudices/prejudgments, language, ideologies, tradition and (historic) horizons. Group love developed. My own positionality contributed to this process. A fusion of horizons was not always possible. Nevertheless, new understanding of sexualities, prostitution, marriage and romantic relationships was achieved in the group. I have introduced a rudimentary hermeneutic framework, which shows how prejudgments and faulty/ negative resonances of love can be modified or transformed. However, this circle is continuously ‘effected by historic un/consciousness’ and therefore never complete. Citation: Group Analysis PubDate: 2023-02-01T11:34:12Z DOI: 10.1177/05333164221144906

Authors:Farhad Dalal Abstract: Group Analysis, Ahead of Print. I will speak up for philosophy as a deep, questioning attitude and a form of critical thinking. I will argue that the development of this kind of attitude is not only necessary to the therapeutic endeavour, it is identical to it. The work of developing this attitude requires courage not only from the ones-who-come-for-help, but also the ones-who-try-to-help. Amongst other things, I will contest the idea of psychotherapy as ‘treatment’ that seeks to ‘cure’ ‘mental illnesses’. I will say something about how this way of thinking tries to inform the ethos of the group analytic programme in Bengaluru, India. I will draw on my understanding of ‘Eastern’ philosophies, and contrast them with my evolving philosophy of psychotherapy. In this task I will call on a range of philosophers from Wittgenstein to Hume, Mead, Gaita, Keats, Weil, and de Beauvoir.

Authors:Claire Bacha Abstract: Group Analysis, Ahead of Print. Stuart Stevenson has vividly described the way in which being left alone with homosexuality in a homophobic world as a child creates a specific and lasting trauma. Stevenson captured a specific kind of trauma. However, group responses to his generous insights show that something important also happens to recipients of his insights. In groups, people listening want to identify with him and to join him to a point of drowning him out. These acts of joining, ‘me too’, ‘yes, butting’ and ‘whataboutery’ show that it is deeply uncomfortable to hear someone else’s painful experiences, take them in and not respond immediately. A group discussion at the Group Analysis North Barbara Dick Lecture where Stevenson presented his paper came to the clear conclusion that the best response to hearing painful experiences is simply ‘Yes’. Simply listening to the story of the ‘other’ opens up a painful place that is also enriching and empowering. This is the nature of intersectionality.

Authors:Carla Penna Abstract: Group Analysis, Ahead of Print. This response is based on Reyna Hernández de Tubert two articles: The Mexican social unconscious—Part I: The roots of a nation’ and ‘Part II: Politics and group analysis’ (Hernández de Tubert, 2021). It discusses the role of the myth of mestization and the myth of conquest in the Mexican social unconscious in Mexican tripartite matrices. It also draws attention to Ferenczi’s trauma theory—confusion of tongues—exploring the psychoanalytic and group analytic ideas on the ‘identification with the aggressor’ in association with the concepts of introjection and incorporation.

Authors:Christine Vickers Abstract: Group Analysis, Ahead of Print. This paper is a reflection on the context from which group analysis emerged in Britain during the Second World War. Edward Glover’s objections to the work of army psychiatry in a radio broadcast in November 1943, and the difficult collaboration between the War Office and psychiatrists as they sought to develop officer selection and training procedures, influenced developments in psychoanalysis, including the emergence of group analysis. It considers the response of the British Psychoanalytical Society whose members were engaged in army psychiatry work alongside colleagues from the Tavistock Clinic. Bion’s and Rickman’s collaboration and the experiments at Northfield were an outcome. The abrupt ending of the first Northfield experiment, and the development of psychiatry more broadly, prompted serious questioning within the Society about its isolationalist policies. The Society’s move to develop its training role, and to participate in post war health, mental health and welfare services was a result. Not only did it ensure the Society’s survival, but enhanced the emergence of group analysis as a discipline within the psychoanalytic project.

Authors:Stuart Stevenson Abstract: Group Analysis, Ahead of Print. This article is based on a presentation I made to a Group Analytic Society International (GASi) event on ‘The Impact of Homophobia on Mind, Body and Soul’ in May 2021. Much of what I discuss applies to gay women and people who are transgender. However, I will foreground the experience of gay men because I have more clinical and personal experience in this field. I provide a working definition of homophobia and how it impacts on the psychological development of gay men at various points during their earlier life stages. My contention is that the presentation of gay men in our clinics and practices in terms of their psychological difficulties and issues can be attributed, largely, to the impact of homophobic trauma rather than anything that is innate. This is largely due to gay men, from very young ages, having to manage a wide range of traumatizing negative responses and betrayal from their families and communities, ranging from ostracism to extreme violence and rejection from those who are meant to care for them. The more damaging impacts of these attitudes occur at points in the early developmental stages of gay men when they do not have a mature psychic apparatus with which to process and manage repeated and relentless homophobic trauma. This has implications for their personality formation and can lead to their developing some very unhelpful and dysfunctional defences. It is, in fact, surprising that gay men are such positive contributors to society and are not far more disturbed and destructive, given the amount of trauma that they face throughout their early development. I conclude with a discussion of the clinical needs of gay men. Citation: Group Analysis PubDate: 2022-09-15T11:33:46Z DOI: 10.1177/05333164221121057

Authors:Susanne Vosmer Abstract: Group Analysis, Ahead of Print. My evocative and analytical autoethnography explored the lived experience of diversity during group analytic training and as group analyst. Bakhtin’s dialogism was used to analyse texts. Data analysis has revealed pervasive experiences of racism and discomfort about social class and gender disparity. Religion was not included in my training and achieving feminine autonomy was difficult in group analysis. Linked to patriarchy, colonialism, and perhaps the Holocaust, my analysis suggests that we need to rethink gender and religious certainties. Our morality leaves much to be desired when we do not embrace polyphony, diverse voices. Embracing diversity may also entail discarding the Oedipus Complex. Group analytic training institutes should consider different fee structures so that disadvantaged people can join our elitist circle.

Authors:Regine Scholz First page: 483 Abstract: Group Analysis, Ahead of Print. This lecture explores the recent and further to be expected radical changes in our nowadays world, asking for the implied consequences—for every organization/community on all levels, for every person—as well as for us as group analysists. To understand the underlying processes reference is made to the work of Karl Mannheim and Foulkes’ concept of the foundation matrix. The emotional strain of reworking its basic dimensions—as group boundaries, gender relations, relations between the generations, their power implications, which entrench the whole social structure and hence history—are carefully outlined.

Authors:Pablo Castanho First page: 498 Abstract: Group Analysis, Ahead of Print. This text aims at developing the importance of the notion of task in Pichon-Rivière in planning and conducting groups outside the consulting room. It is structured as a theoretical and practical reflection. After a preliminary general discussion on the statute of the task for both Pichon-Rivière and Foulkes, we propose and discuss three practical developments from Pichon-Rivière’s conception of task. The three developments are: 1) The task as a leader: its value in dealing with identity issues; 2) How centring on the task can moderate the transference towards the conductor; 3) Respecting narcissistic envelopes with tasked-centred interventions. It concludes by reaffirming that all three discussed elements are helpful when taking groups outside the consulting room—and yet that they also contribute to approach what Pichon-Rivière called the moment of a task as a potential moment in the sense of Donald Winnicott.

Authors:Alice Mulasso First page: 516 Abstract: Group Analysis, Ahead of Print. This contribution is about the Reflective Citizens Koinonia community intervention, with a specific focus on its moving matrix and transmissibility. Starting from the history of this method and its architecture, attention will be brought to the specific features, properties and values that make the matrix move and attune to local contexts. In order to give the reader an idea of the dynamic and emergent themes of RC workshops, some finger food from Chieri (Italy) Reflective Citizens Koinonia (RC Koinonia) first three workshops is presented to the reader, from the foundation without trauma to the first workshop held during pandemic in 2020.

This article is a response to the 45th Foulkes lecture given by Dr. Regine Scholz, ‘When foundation matrices move — Challenges for a group analysis of our time’. It looks at women’s rights and societies’ responses to women as mothers and motherhood as the ultimate crisis. Women’s choices, their decisions about being a mother, or not, and their relationship to social and political power is explored, presenting themes connected to motherhood such as abortion, rape, war and displacement as well as climate change.

Authors:Clarisse Vollon, Guy Gimenez First page: 539 Abstract: Group Analysis, Ahead of Print. This article explores group creativity following the lockdown in France from March to May 2020. Questioning its impact on established groups led us to formulate two hypotheses. First, the announcement of these measures provoked what Anzieu (1981) has referred to as a ‘state of creative shock’ in existing group structures. Second, the psychic envelope of these groups enabled a group creativity to emerge and be sustained. We support these remarks with an analysis of non-directive and semi-directive interviews (Lincoln, 1995) as well as recordings of sessions of a contemporary dance company, which were carried out via the Zoom platform throughout the lockdown period.
